Vastu numerology: find your 4 lucky directions from your date of birth

Your Kua number, worked out from your birth year and gender, splits the eight directions into four lucky and four difficult ones. Here is how to find yours and use it for the door, bed and desk.

What your Kua number says about you

In common Vastu–numerology teaching (the Eight Mansions method), everyone belongs to an East group (Kua 1, 3, 4, 9) or a West group (Kua 2, 6, 7, 8). Your group decides which four directions support you.

NumberHealer works out the Kua with the rule from our own course notes: add the birth-year digits and reduce; men take 11 minus that number, women add 4. Kua 5 has no chart of its own, so men use Kua 2 and women Kua 8.

Career: face your wealth direction

The first lucky direction is traditionally the wealth or success direction. Sit so that you face it at your work desk, and face it during interviews or important calls where you can.

Business: shop and office entrance

For a shop or office, an entrance in the owner's wealth or health direction is preferred. If that is not possible, the owner's own desk can still face the wealth direction.

Study: the growth direction

The fourth lucky direction is read as personal growth and calm. Children and students can face it while studying; it also suits prayer and meditation.

Home: door, bed and kitchen

Main door: ideally in your wealth direction. Bed: head pointing to your health or relationship direction. Kitchen: the Eight Mansions method places the stove in a difficult sector, with the cook facing a lucky one.

Worked example: a man born in 1954 is Kua 1 (East group). His lucky directions are South-East (wealth), East (health), South (relationships) and North (growth); South-West is his most difficult.

Name and numbers

Directions work alongside your numbers. The free Vastu tool also checks your flat or house number against your Mulank, Bhagyank and name number, using NumberHealer's friendship chart.

Remedies when you cannot change the direction

Turn the bed or desk rather than the room; keep the entrance bright and clutter-free; use your Mulank's lucky colours at the door. Gemstones only after consultation. Pending NumberHealer review.

Frequently asked questions

Is Kua the same as my Mulank?
No. Mulank comes from your birth day; Kua comes from your birth year and gender.
What if my main door faces a difficult direction?
You do not need to move. Use the door remedies in the free Vastu tool, or book a ₹500 consultation on WhatsApp.
Do husband and wife have the same directions?
Not always. If they are in different groups, the bedroom usually follows the main earner's directions, and each person can turn their own desk.
Where do these rules come from?
They are the widely taught Eight Mansions (Ba Zhai) chart; NumberHealer shows them as common teaching, pending numberhealer review.
